And so it goes on, great double save by their 'keeper.

They're chomping at the bit and are raring to make an appearance!

United rarely go on a scoring spree. Even against weaker sides. Struggle to see sides off, and give themselves a relatively comfortable finish to the game.
Couple of hairy moments as well.

Surely a red card, that was horrid.
Yellow card, just shocking.

Left that ridiculously late.
Actually felt sorry for Nicosia, whilst being delighted at the same time. Did not think McTomminay would get the winner, especially after his horrific effort a short time beforehand

Probably the most ridiculous 1-0 I've ever seen ................................ was De Gea even on the pitch?
I wonder what Haaland would have done if Utd had him up top?

How poor are Man Utd. Relying on a talent free Scottish player to dig them out of a hole.
I wish Rangers had played Man U last night instead of Liverpool, we might have had a chance against them. ?

I can almost taste the bitterness, just hilarious.
There's not a Scottish team who would come close to United.

Unsure, the players around Haaland might not have been very good at setting him up.
They were reluctant to cross a ball, and when they did it was usually poor. Always looked a bit scrappy and rushed, but not been great at breaking down ultra defensive sides for ages. Got a few chances coming in from sides, mainly Rashford, but was foiled by poor finishing or good goal keeping.
If City played that team, with Fred up front, they'd probably win 4 or 5 nil (although Fred probably wouldn't score)

Where would Celtic be without McCann? They were hours away from from being closed down by the bank when the board finally caved in and accepted his takeover bid. Without McCann, the club would have died. Fortunately we avoided that fate, unlike our near neighbours a few years later.

Surely Tashyboy's original comment was made as a response to someone mentioning Scottish clubs being good honest clubs, working hard within their financial means and not selling their soul to the devil?
I thought he was just highlighting the financial issues some Scottish clubs have got into, Rangers being a prime example.
So, are you not now both saying the same thing, in opposition to the comment Tashyboy was responding to initially?
Why would Celtic have died (not a leading question, I just don't know the circumstances)?

The club was massively in debt to the Bank of Scotland who decided to call in the debt, and told the club they had 24 hours to pay a large guarantee or they would start the winding up process. The club didn't have the money to pay the guarantee, fortunately McCann did.

Funnily enough this is exactly (other than the word ‘we’ ? ) what I said last night to our club chef…a staunch ManUtd man…he didn’t smile.

The feeling is mutual, I'd have loved Utd have played Rangers. Rashford needs a boost of confidence

I did, and it wasn’t a dig at scotish football just pointing out. Unfortunately the same problem has reared its head in Rugby union re Worcester and Wasps. Unfortunately No McCann or AN OTHER is about.

apologies, obviously picked you up wrong.
in terms of Celtic in the CL this season, we have played well for large chunks of every game - 54 goal attempts in 4 games backs that up - but have failed to take our chances, then we seem to dip around the hour mark. This coincides with making multiple substitutions around then, keeping the same game plan, but replacing our better players with inferior ones. We get away with that in the SPL but not in Europe.

Thats a new one - premier league player of the month needing a boost of confidence ?
